DESCRIPTION
Domaine Nico La Savante Pinot Noir 2023 comes from the Gualtallary vineyard in Tupungato, at an altitude of 1,450 meters, from a 1.44-hectare plot planted in 1994 (Dijon clones 115 and 777). Aged for 12 months in 10% first-use, 40% second-use, and 50% third-use barrels, exclusively in François Frères French oak. 50% whole clusters. Ultra-limited production of 7,223 bottles. Alcohol 13.2%, pH 3.35, TA 5.27. Domaine Nico is an artisanal Pinot Noir project established in Tupungato, in the Uco Valley, Mendoza. The vines, planted between 1993 and 2013 across high-altitude terroirs ranging from 1,120 to 1,450 meters, express the freshness and precision of limestone soils. Limited production and a non-interventionist approach, aged exclusively in François Frères French oak barrels.
On the nose, notes of red fruits and minerals, with a slight reduction, a touch of lemon, orange peel, and an earthy character. High acidity, low alcohol, vertical profile, and layered tannins. It pairs well with light gastronomic dishes or poultry with wild mushrooms. Aging potential of 8 to 12 years.
RéGION
Mendoza
Argentina
Mendoza est la plus grande région viticole d'Argentine. Située sur un plateau de haute altitude au bord des Andes, la province est responsable d’environ 70% de la production annuelle de vin du pays. Le cépage Français Malbec a sa maison du Nouveau Monde dans les vignobles de Mendoza, produisant des vins rouges de grande concentration et intensité. Si le Malbec est sans aucun doute la star de la région, on y trouve également de nombreuses plantations de Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Syrah, Torrontes et Sauvignon Blanc.
Recommandé pour vous:
This precise and tense Pinot, with a mineral finish, is a winemaker's wine, not made from a recipe.
